Puppet has a limitation with respect to installing packages that it manages
each package separately. At times that can be a performance issue. It may
be that under certain circumstances it also presents a dependency issue.
Very likely if you try to perform package updates from the command line in
the same order that you observe Puppet trying to use, then you will see the
same depsolving problems. That might provide additional insight into the
nature of the problem.
Supposing that you cannot / will not repackage postgreSQL, though, the
nature of the problem doesn't matter much. Since evidently there are
update orders that work, you can just instruct Puppet that it must manage
those package in such an order. For example:
$packageList = [
"${postgresBase}-server",
"${postgresBase}-contrib",
"${postgresBase}-devel", ]
package { ${postgresBase}:
ensure => $postgresqlVersion,
}
->
package { $packageList:
ensure => $postgresqlVersion,
}
The order of the declarations in the file doesn't necessarily matter, but
the chaining operator (->) between the delcarations does. You can also use
one of the relational metaparameters ('require' would probably be best)
instead of a chain.
